- 8" Precision-Ground Blades
- Forged Steel Edge Retention
- Pruning Notch For Branches
- 5-Year Warranty
Hedge Shears with 8" Precision Ground Blades are built for clean, repeatable shaping on hedges and woody ornamentals. The forged steel blades are properly tempered for wear resistance and edge holding, and the precision-ground edges leave a neater finish on boxwood, privet, holly, and similar shrubs. At 23 inches overall and 2.3 lb, they’re easy to guide for longer passes without feeling unwieldy. We suggest using these for your finish work after any thick branch cuts are handled with pruners or loppers, so the hedge face stays smooth.
A pruning notch at the bottom of the blade helps catch and cut occasional thicker twigs without the branch sliding out of the jaws. Tubular steel handles keep the tool sturdy, while ergonomic oval grips improve control when you’re working overhead or along a long run. The grips also include a hanging hole, which is handy for tethering the shears on a jobsite or storing on a wall hook between trims.

Product Tips
- Start by cutting wayward growth back to your guide line, then make a second, lighter pass to refine the surface.
- Use the pruning notch only for the occasional thicker twig; switch to loppers for larger wood to protect the edge.
- Wipe blades after resinous shrubs to keep the cut smooth and prevent drag.
- Sharpen lightly and regularly rather than waiting until the blades chew stems.
- For straighter hedge faces, use visual reference points like a string line or the edge of a board.
